:hehe:
Not gonna be pretty for the Greens having this woman representing them, if Neil can poke massive holes in all their policies in a Sunday politics show then the other parties should have no problem in the leadership debates

She wasn't well, she explains that... maybe she has a phobia of microphones? like that other womans phobia of black skin.

Yeah, she's not a great choice to push the Greens in the media. Although finding one of them that could make a good case for their crackpot ideas is going to be a toughie.

I thought the cap on private rents was a great idea, in the past it was legislated so why not now?
You can build a green prefabricated home for £60K, it's not that out there.

This FT report seems favourable enough.

Stop being mean, she was ill. There are some policies (eg. universal basic income) that need work on, but overall they are all great. If she was right-wing you'd be defending her too.

she was ill and I don't think she could have delivered something so excruciating if she wasn't.. being completely honest, I don't see natalie as a very good leader for the greens.. caroline is much better, and jenny jones is amazing too. natalie isn't awful but she does stutter a lot and i'm not sure if she's suited to the position.

I like Natalie,I think she is sincere and they do have some good ideas being fair to them.
However, Caroline Lucas always seems at ease and makes the points much better, I do fear in the leaders debates that since it will be Natalie and not Caroline taking part, their message could get lost in them.
This wasn't her best interview but a lot of what she said was interesting to be fair to her.

The Greens are a party of idealists who've never really had to put their money where their mouth is because they've never been given the opportunity, thus continuing the cycle of dreamers who have good intentions but zero clue how to go about putting their ideas into practice. They're a joke.

I am shocked she told Crick on Ch4HDNews
she is staying for 2 years.
On twitter they are saying Go
The cold really is no excuse, her lack of preparation is absolutely mental, how can you come on and say you're going to build 500,000 homes and then act completely taken aback and have no idea how to respond when someone asks the incredibly simple question 'how are you going to pay for that?'

It begs the question if this journo dislikes Brightons green run council so much why did he choose to live there?...

to get enough words to twist and issues to exaggerate :smug:
The FT article is hardly that favourable, won't let me read it now without registering but it still talks about the farce of the bin collections, the Greens becoming plagued by infighting and disagreements, and local politics generally becoming a bit of a circus

FT is also right-wing and therefore anti-green.

Or maybe those things just did actually happen? Not everything is a conspiracy from one side of the political spectrum against the each other. The FT is actually pretty smack bang centrist anyway.

By any rational definition they are centrist. And actually I have just managed to read the article again and it is very balanced and does give attention to Green successes in Brighton as well as their screw ups. I suspect you didn't read it before you dismissed it as another 'right wing' conspiracy.

If it is balanced then I am glad, but a lot of stories I have read on there are right-wing biased so I don't pay much attention to them .

It's balanced... It also highlights some successes too, I don't know any town or city that hasn't had peaks and troughs under this government due to reduced council funding.

Incompetent leaders aside.The Greens if ever in power would run this country into the ground.
They have no clue what the hell they're doing.They'd leave us defencless with no full time military,No nuclear weaponary,They'd leave us powerless and dependant on the weather to run our homes and cities and put us back into the dark ages and god only knows what would happen to our infrastructure and transport.
They are dreamers with no experience of running a country and no clue how to do it and i suspect with any luck most of their insane ideas would fade away one by one as reality set in.

The weather is the one constant... sun, wind, tide.
For residential power what's the problem?

It's unpredictable,unreliable and takes up huge amounts of land and probably money to harness enough energy to power even one city,Nevermind a whole country.
I've seen those wind turbines in the sea and they look awful and you need hundreds if not thousands of them to generate relatively little power.
The beaches and countryside would be littered with the things.
Not here for the lights flickering on and off whenever the weather is'nt behaving as we hope.
Nuclear is the only realistic constant reliable energy source for now but i'm gonna bet the Greens don't subscribe to that view.

I did say residential.. I don't see what's wrong with solar.
I don't subscribe to that either, nuclear+ fracking= death.
